Colbert Takes On Out-Mayor Johnny Cummings

In Amazing 'People Who Are Destroying America' Segment (VIDEO)

Whenever Stephen Colbert debuts one of his "People Who Are Destroying America" segments, you know you're about to meet someone wonderful. It's the brilliance of "The Colbert Report" that anything labelled as horrible or destructive is actually something that restores your faith in humanity.

Wednesday's subject of Colbert's fake ire was no exception. In fact, the story of Mayor Johnny Cummings of Vicco, Ky. and the people of his town is so heartwarming you might want to plan a visit there

I feel ashamed that I am one of the people that would have judged that town harshly based solely upon their appearance and location. I suck.

On the good side, I had tears in my eyes and grew a few new braincells because of the courage of one little town.

That pastor looked like he was about to drop at any second. May his God forgive him or sumthin'.
